Ferdinand's Saar

£39.40 Quantity:

Thirty organic botanicals infused with Schiefer Riesling constitute the basis for this very interesting gin from Germany.

Ferdinand’s Saar Dry Gin -

On the nose, Ferdinand’s Saar Dry Gin has floral and grassy lemon notes. The grapes are recognisable too, along with soft juniper. To taste, the gin really comes to life, with lavender and rosecups coming to the fore and huge Riesling flavours in the mix.

The juniper doesn’t quite play second fiddle, but it’s much more subtle in this botanically intense gin. The grape makes Ferdinand’s Saar Dry Gin stand out as something truly unique and while it's one that will be enjoyed by all gin fans, those who like to have their conventions challenged will do well to try this.

Ferdinand's Saar Quince Gin -

Ferdinand's Saar Quince Gin is light and fruity on the nose. Perfectly balanced to be deliciously sweet but not sickly in any way. To taste, delicate rose-like florals emerge alongside the juicy, caramelised fruit tones of the quince. Both the wine and gin's complexity reveals itself thereafter with layers of subtle spice, sharper citrus and a resinous underbelly all intermingled with the minerality of Rausch Kabinett.

Served chilled on its own, this Quince Gin is an ideal replacement for desert wines, especially if paired with apple crumble alongside a cheese board (Manchego especially).
